-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 pound Flank steak
1 tablespoon Chinese fermented black beans
2 Garlic cloves -- peeled -- chopped
2 slices Fresh peeled ginger -- minced
1 pound Fresh rice noodles
3 tablespoons Peanut oil
1 Onion -- cut into 8 wedges
1 Green bell pepper -- seeded
cut into 1-inch cubes
1 pinch White pepper
1 pinch Sugar
1 tablespoon Soy sauce
-----BEEF MARINADE-----
2 teaspoons Dark soy sauce
2 teaspoons Rice wine or dry sherry
1/2 teaspoon Sugar
1 teaspoon Cornstarch
1 teaspoon Peanut or sesame oil
CUT THE BEEF into 1/4-inch thick by 1 1/2-inch long by 1/2-inch wide slices;
put into a bowl and toss with the beef marinade. Set aside. Cover the black
beans with water until soft, about 5 minutes. Drain and rinse off excess salt
with water. Place in a small bowl and mash together with garlic and ginger
into a coarse paste; set aside. Separate the strands of rice noodles. Set
aside. Over high heat, preheat the wok until hot. Add half the oil and swirl
it to coat the sides. When the oil is hot, add the beef; toss until the beef
loses its redness, about 30-to-45 seconds. Remove to a bowl; set aside. Add
remaining oil to wok. While the oil is warming add the black bean mixture;
stir-fry until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Over high heat, add the onions and
peppers; stir-fry until they begin to soften but are still crisp, about 1
minute. Add the rice noodles; stir-fry to coat the strands with seasoned oil,
about 30 seconds. Add the white pepper, sugar and soy sauce; toss until evenly
distributed. Return the beef; toss a few turns to mix in. Transfer to a
serving platter. Serve immediately. This chow fun recipe comes from Joyce
Jue's book, "Asian Appetizers" (Harlow & Ratner, 1991). JOYCE JUE - PRODIGY
